Brief Project Summary:

The objectives of this project are to evaluate the effect of planting date and relative maturity on soybean yield in both traditional and double crop systems, evaluate the effect of seeding rate and row width on soybean yield, develop agronomic strategies that reduce temperature stress on soybean plants to maximize yield, and update Ohio Agronomy Guide recommendations. This project identifies and refines recommendations for soybean planting date, relative maturity, seeding rate and row width to maximize soybean yield and economic return. These agronomic practices were previously evaluated in Ohio more than 15 to 20 years ago. With new soybean genetics, technology and cultural practices, agronomic practices need to be re-evaluated.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents

Information And Results
Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
